The Fifth International Delta Forum with the theme of "Ecology, Agriculture, and Technology" was held in Dongying City recently. The forum aims to thoroughly implement the major national strategy of ecological protection and high-quality development in the Yellow River Basin.
The forum was led by the Institute of Geographic Sciences and Natural Resources of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, the Chinese Geographical Society, and the United Nations Environment Programme International Ecosystem Management Partnership (UNEP-IEMP), and co-organized by the Yantai Coastal Geological Survey Center of the China Geological Survey. More than 200 experts and scholars from home and abroad were invited to exchange wonderful academic achievements around the "Evolution of the Geological Environment of Delta Wetlands".
In addition, the "Field Scientific Observation and Research Station of Land-Sea Interaction at the Yellow River Estuary of the Ministry of Natural Resources" was officially unveiled at the forum. The station was built under the leadership of the Yantai Center and jointly built by Qingdao Marine Geology Research Institute, Yantai Marine Center of the Ministry of Natural Resources, Shandong Dongying Institute of Geography, China University of Geosciences (Wuhan) and Jiangsu Marine Geological Survey Institute. The station focuses on the information monitoring of natural resource elements in the Earth's key zones, focusing on three major directions: coastal erosion and sedimentation and sediment deposition processes, surface runoff-groundwater-seawater coupling and water cycle processes, soil salinization and ecosystem evolution processes, to provide scientific and technological support for serving natural resource management and high-quality development of the Yellow River Delta.
